Ch. 24Chapter 24: Glimpse


And when I heard the last thing he said, my heart suddenly jumped because I didn't expect to hear it at the same time as I suddenly ran towards him and gave him a very tight hug for nothing, I couldn't stop myself anymore .

I did not make a mistake in my decision not to destroy the pity I felt because of him. It was shocking and he added to it today which I didn't expect. Your Alpha made me very happy!

"You really fell from the sky, Magnus!" Phew.

“Argh. Wait. M-My wound," he said irritated, causing me to quickly release him from the hug.

I smiled at him. "Oh, come on. Sorry. Sorry. I didn't mean to."

He looked away because of the pain. I think I stuffed him because I was so excited. Shocking. He might suddenly change his mind about the decision he made because of my clumsiness.

"Start your work now," meanwhile, he said.

Because I didn't immediately get what he said I asked, "Huh?"

What does he mean by that?

"I said..." he started emotionlessly, running out of patience. "I agree that you will now be my maid again. And you should start your work now."

What the fu—

A few seconds passed before I gradually got where it was going. And when I finally got it, anger started to take over my insides.

"And what is my salary?" I asked with raised eyebrows.

"A money."

Annoyed, I pinched the part of his wound on his chest the reason for his sudden grunts. He writhed in pain caused by what I did that I will never regret.

“D-Damn it. Why did you do that?” he asked in surprise. "You offered that to me, didn't you?"

"You have ruined my day. You're happy now?" I snort together and just sit on the couch, where it's far from him and I can't see his face.

This guy is crazy, he's just going to make me a nanny forever? Well, how long should Prince Malbonte wait? He is really unbelievable!

Maybe that was so funny inside him because he was able to ruin my happy mood so easily. I don't know about this person. The strength of his trip is also getting into my nerves.

And because I'm crazy, I won't be defeated by what he did to me. I glanced at him with a smile on my face as I took the food out of the paper bag. I mixed the expression on my face with naughtiness as I opened the lids one by one while smelling the food.

"Oh no. They are guaranteed to be very tasty. Well, well... I guess I cooked," I said proudly.

I grinned when I heard him cough. I pretended to be worried about him, "My poor Alpha. Are you pregnant? That, oh. You have a lot of food in the fridge, then next to your table. You might even lose weight. Eat."

"I don't like them," he replied, which really made me laugh out loud in my mind. "If you wanna torture me, just stop and leave—"

"That's not possible," I cut his line. "Isn't it true, I've been hired for my job as your maid? So get used to looking like this because I will never be lost by your side."

"You sure?"

"Yes!"

"Then, I order you to give me that."

"What's that?" I still ask innocently.

"That food."

"Ah—this?" I nodded and pointed to the food in front of me. I grimaced at the same time as my face turned sour, "You might get food poisoning, Alpha, especially since it all came from me. So just don't."

I still heard his heavy sigh, "I'm hungry."

I pretended to be deaf, "What's that?"

Suddenly he became serious, "Just tell me what you want."

"Oh, acting so innocently?"

"As well as you."

"And you really sympathized with me."

"As I've said, I can't do that."

"Can't or don't? Hey, Magnus. Unable to do is different from unwilling to do."

"I know. And still no."

"Well, why can't you?"

Magnus didn't respond to our debate anymore and he suddenly got up from sitting on his bed and suddenly went to my behavior, his face was really serious which gradually made me feel nervous inside.

"Why did you stand up?" I stammered a question to the man who looked straight at me and didn't take it away.

"You leave me no choice," he said coldly.

Come on. Maybe he was planning to do something again to me just like what he did before! He can't do that to me. He's freaking out. I can sacrifice so much for this man!

"Ah...Uh...Peace?" I said while still holding the peace sign and laughing like I was sick.

He left in front of me and sat down next to me. I just felt sorry for him when he directly ate the food that was silent.

“You made me crave so... you have nothing to do about it. Only to cook for me... everyday.”

Because of the lack of what to say, I just gasped. I'm really confused about this guy. So, I cooked it for him. There is really nothing I can do to make him agree to what I want.

"That food is for the young patient I saw the other day," my mouth suddenly opened.

He just continued eating and didn't even look at me with conscience in the eyes. "So?"

"So, what? You're freaking out, Magnus."

"I can buy that kid for his, her foods in a luxury restaurant right now." There was no bragging tone in his voice but he seemed really confident in what he said. “That kid won't like your cook. It's not delicious for a child's taste.”

Really? But he's right about that. That's right. I don't want to debate with the wise like him anymore. I'm at a loss.

I sighed and rolled my eyes. If I could really eat, maybe I would really be the only one who eats those. I'm really going to run out of him.

Since there was nothing to do, I just watched him while eating. Notice that I pay attention to every movement of his jaw due to chewing. Whether I admit it or not, I enjoy watching him every time I see him eat the food I cooked.

Seriously, I'm so proud of myself!

I suddenly stopped thinking when he stopped chewing when he caught a glimpse of my appearance. I immediately adjusted the posture and he might think that I was fantasizing about him. That's over-the-fence, right?

He swallowed and looked at me, "Fantasizing a person while eating is a crime."

"Excuse me?" I have a wrinkled demeanor. "Just for your information, huh. I just enjoy watching you eat what I cook. Meaning, I'm so proud of myself—”

"And that's also what you felt while my uncle did read about the card you gave, isn't it?" he was tired of cutting my line.

I smiled when I remembered the card he was referring to. "It's a nice message, right? You will truly be inspired to live. Long live the one and only Magnus in this world!" I still shouted, pretending to protest.

“Shh. Crazy.”
